ABSTRACT:
A dump wagon for transporting potted plants from one location to another and for unloading the potted plants. The dump wagon includes a wagon bed that tilts between a horizontal transport position and a tilted or inclined unloading position. A pusher at one end of the wagon bed is movable towards the other end of the wagon bed to push potted plants off the wagon as the wagon is slowly moved forwardly. The pusher is chain driven and automatically disengages the chains when the pusher reaches the other end of the wagon bed and the unloading operation is complete. Side rails prevent the potted plants from falling off the sides of the wagon, the side rails being movable out of the way for the purpose of loading the dump wagon.
